4403 Alabama AVE Chattanooga, TN 37409

Beautiful 5-bedroom historic home on one of the most desirable blocks in Saint Elmo! Listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a St. Elmo Landmark, this American Foursquare is believed to be the oldest home in the neighborhood. Built by Colonel A.M. Johnson, it was in this house that the idea for Saint Elmo was born. The nearby Thankful Memorial Episcopal Church is named for Colonel Johnson's wife, Thankful. The home offers over 3,100 square feet of living space on a fenced, level lot that backs up to the wooded slopes of Lookout Mountain, providing privacy and a striking natural backdrop. Because it backs up to Lookout, the east Side of Alabama Avenue is widely regarded as the most sought-after location in Saint Elmo. Inside, original millwork, tall ceilings, and spacious rooms showcase late nineteenth-century craftsmanship, while modern updates include EPB fiber-optic internet and an EV charging station. The primary suite and a half-bath are located on the main level, with four additional bedrooms and two full baths upstairs. A wide front porch overlooks the tree-lined street, and the backyard offers space for gardens, play, or outdoor dining beneath the mountain canopy. Walk to live music at The Woodshop, dine at 1885 Grill or Little Coyote, and shop at Publix just a mile away. The nearby Riverwalk offers over 23 miles of paved, lighted paths connecting parks, greenways, and downtown Chattanooga. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Chattanooga's history in one of its most walkable and vibrant neighborhoods (Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
